    I bought the two ouncer. I want to buy the 100th anniversary of the 2021.

    I saw yesterday evening on DirectTV that there is a 1964 Proof Morgan reproduction from another company.

    Are these available to own? With those low mintage's I'm believing the Knights of the Coin Table scooped them up. There'd have to be a spell to have them give one up.

    They were available to club members and they were pre-order only. In fact, when the pre-orders were taken, we didn't even know what it would look like, there was just a design concept at the time. If I had known how cool they would look in hand, I most likely would have ordered more :)

    I've seen a few pop up on eBay already, and there will certainly be a few more, but with the mintages as low as they are on each version, there will not be too many.

    You can find all of the mintages of all club medals made by Dan Carr on his website here:

    Moonlight Mint Club Medals

    The Knights of the Coin Table Medals and the mintages of each variety are towards the bottom of that page.

    I think Dan should hold a yearly design contest that artist can submit to and let the public vote on the best designs and then do a limited number run of those designs.

    Wow, didn't realize they were listed that high... you'll like it when you see them in hand even more.

    I might have to think about letting a few of mine go at those prices though! ;) But, they're just too cool though I think. The hologram lighting bolts on these really show well on the silver pieces, but they also are present on the brass and copper, though they are a little tougher to see it seems on those.

    It appears that the Die Pair 1 ”1964-D” Brilliant Satin No Clashing are sold out. The website states that the "High Grade" has a final mintage of 792 and the "Bag Handled" has a final mintage of 137.

    I'm still waiting on mine, ordered on 1/24.....is that 'normal' shipping time? Perhaps it's due to the desire to get them in my grubby little hands and off to ANACS, but I thought Mr. Carr's turnaround times were quicker than that, no??

    I'll come up with something.

    I also ordered 1/24. I figured he probably mints them in batches once he has a number of orders. The less handling of the dies the better I would think.

    Figure on this time frame for order to shipping. He must be doing more stuff than he lets us know about here on the forum.

    Shipping does seem to be a little slower than before. I ordered on 1/21 and still no shipping yet either. But he has a lot of new stuff so I sure he's going as fast as he can with orders.

    I Ordered up three 1917 Fantasies on 1/22, 10AM.
    Sometimes delivery takes 3 or 4 weeks, other times just a few days to arrive.

    I'll guess Dan's looking for a certain condition Peace Dollars to overstrike ?

    My 5 piece die state 1964D Peace set all weigh close to their uncirculated weights, so I assume DC uses AU-UNC condition Peace Dollars to counterstrike. I doubt he uses good-very fine Peace $.

    His Coin Art takes time, be patient

    I ordered some on the 24th also. Plus I ordered some slabs for them from Hong Kong. The slabs shipped just after the Chinese New Year. At one time I sent my items to ANACS but since they switched to UPS Smart Post I find it hard to send to them any more.

    You are correct. I just got mine out and the mint mark is slightly direct below the O of One.

    That is correct. However, I'm presently recovering from a bad cold/flu/whatever. That put me considerably behind schedule. But I'm feeling better now and back at it. Orders that have not actually shipped yet will be ready in a couple days.

    Thanks for pointing that out.
    I do not have exclusive rights to "1964" Peace Dollars.
    However, I do have exclusive rights to my (brand) name when associated with coin products.
    That seller may have been attempting to obtain the premium that the "Carr" specimens go for, while skirting the actual trademark by calling it a "Daneal Carr" piece.

    eBay is not very efficient at canceling auctions that are "reported" via the link in every listing.
    But they do have a "VeRO" program where intellectual property owners can, via special channels, report infringing listings. I reported this listing to VeRO. In the past, such reports have resulted in the listing being cancelled within a day and sometimes within a few hours.

    PS:
    I maintain a web page with information about "Carr" products which are incorrectly attributed:
    moonlightmint.com/fakes.htm

    Definitely one of the cooler items Dan has done recently. I especially like the overstuck Morgan and Ike's. Some cool ghosting of the host coins.
    Just got my shipping notification on the peace dollars today. It's like a Moonlight mint Christmas in Feb for me.
